Chanel

Chanel’s space/60’s/ski themed autumn/winter 2017 ready-to-wear show was most definitely out of this world. The collection was true to the brands original roots, full of beautiful knitwear and rich fabrics with stunning headbands, pendants and spacey boots. Slouchy coats, beautifully tailored trousers and simply or rather, complexly, exquisite dresses just make this my favourite collection of Paris fashion week. Karl has put very different styles and pieces in together in a genius way.

Below are my favourites.

I cannot say I loved, or at least liked, the star of the Chanel Couture show – the Chanel Couture bride. In my eyes, Chanel should always have an air of understatement and class. The dress below is over the top and reminds me of the old fashioned version of femininity Chanel herself tried to escape from. As Coco once said ‘luxury is the opposite of vulgarity’.

One of the best things about living in London is knowing that you can jump on the Eurostar to beautiful Paris. Last weekend I did just that and spent the day roaming around the Champs De Elysee and Notre Dame.
